	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1906, Longville.  Vehicle license fees.
   Existing law provides that a license fee be assessed on every
vehicle subject to registration for the privilege of operating on
public roads.  For most vehicles, the fee is a function of the cost
to the purchaser and the number of years the purchaser has possessed
the vehicle.  However, a fixed vehicle license fee of $2 applies to
vehicles described in the law providing for special identification
plates for vehicles of historic value.
   This bill would provide that the special $2 license fee applies to
those vehicles that have been assigned an identification plate or
plates pursuant to that law.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 10753.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code is
amended to read:
   10753.5.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this part, the
annual amount of the license fee for a vehicle that has been assigned
a special identification plate or plates as described in Section
5004 of the Vehicle Code shall be two dollars ($2).
